What To Know About Solid Color Ties

By Krystal Branch


Ties, which may also be known as neckties, are pieces of cloth worn around the neck. These long pieces of cloth are often worn for decorative purposes and may be worn around the shoulders. Usually they rest under the collar of a shirt and are knotted up by the neck. Bolo, zipper, bow, ascot or clip-on ties, and cravats are other variations. Solid color ties are one of many kinds available.

Generally, these are worn by males. However, in modern times it is not uncommon to see them being worn by females. Usually they are sold at any retail store that sells clothing and other accessories. They should be expected to vary in price, which might be based on the brand, seller, material, style or other such factors.

Like many other accessories, these come in numerous styles. Some may have a pattern or design. Others might be of one color and include no pattern. There are some people who like to have solid kinds because they are easier to wear and can match with nearly any outfit. Still, the kind that is chosen is usually determined by the style and personal preference of the person who wears them. There are usually no rules for how these should be worn, expect when part of a uniform.

Ties can be incorporated into casual or formal outfits. The material or style of each piece may help an individual choose what occasion or event it is most appropriate for. Certain jobs or positions may require that this be worn as part of a uniform. In such cases, solid versions are most common.

This neckwear has a long history. Some version of these pieces has been around since the 1600s. The style, material and use of this neckwear has changed in a lot of ways since that period of time. Still, it is largely still used as a fashion statement.

These may also serve as a visual symbol. This is because many people associate people who wear these with those who are of high status or importance. This is not true of all who wear them. Women and men are known to wear these pieces as part of formal wear, which adds to this symbolism. Still, there are also many options that suffice for casual wear.

Different fabrics are employed in the manufacturing process. Some of the most common materials employed: cashmere, satin, silk, wool and polyester. The various kinds may provide their own look, even if they are in one color. For example, a wool tie that is in a solid color may have more texture and dimension than a solid-color tie made of another fabric. Synthetic fabrics might snag, making them look cheap after little wear. Always keep in mind your budget and the occasion as well.

Many are willing to make the investment on these pieces because they can be used for several years, especially those that are of a solid color and do not cater to specific trends in fashion. Solid color ties, along with all the other styles, are largely considered a timeless piece when it comes to menswear.
